So you two are pilots therefore the opinions of the affected pax are worthless as they dont share your pedastal. I hope you two never have to do a football charter, youll off load yourselves before you leave the crew room. At least one of you was a pax yourself not long ago.
Crew over reaction is a reality sometimes, inexperience as a captain, hiding behind safety and professionalism to disguise that inexperience , cabin crew lookin for trouble (drama where there isnt any).. all sorts of reasons. Having an ATPL and a pompous attitude doesnt exempt you from making mistakes or answering for them.
Maybe , just flybe the crew did over react, having spent a season up there and having done many celtic football flights, not to mention paxed on bfs gla easyjet full of orange thugs ( not the crew) my money is on an inexperienced skipper, an easily excitable cabin crew and an over reaction. The demographic of the crewing profile at that end of the market would suggest that such combinations are likely.
There are many noisy excitable people up there but they are generally respectful of maternal authority,ie a firm purser, merciless with gay stewards , cheekier than a ****house rat, but generally not a THREAT.
Ps cute women as well.
